Air-cons in Singapore

Quite unbelievable but yes, you can catch a cold here in Singapore. When I saw first time some Strepsils commercials, I thought that these people are crazy that advertise this medicine, when outside is always around 30 Celsius degrees.

And now yes, I managed to catch a cold. Why? Because of those damn air-conditioning equipments. People here have an obsession with air-cons and they like to stay in cold weatherJ. In some places is as cold as 15 degrees. And of course all the cabs, buses, office building, supermarkets, malls, restaurants are with air-conditioning. And they use it. They are not kidding. So your body just fails after a while, when you just change from 15 to 30 degrees, or from 20 to 35.

I just started to wear a fleece jacket in the office, as it can get very cold. And yeah, now I drink tea and feeling the symptoms of flu.
Even if there are 30 degrees outside ....

  • and that's why Asian parents would always insist for children to think lots of vitamins and eat healthy food 3 times a day... maybe the reason for having to differentiate dinner and supper lah. hehe

  • Acum ploua la noi. Astept cu nerabdare zapada, dar doar dupa NPS.

    Mi-am adus aminte cat de mult imi place mirosul de iarna, de fum care iese pe hornuri, si amestecat cu cel de rumegus aruncat pe drum.
